The Healing Factor of Timing

Sometimes we experience an infant with a partial return of a condition. We found that a layer of trauma that had been present at birth and was not ready to release then, is now ready to come out. Let’s extrapolate that to the BBS/CFT/IDM model done directly at birth. If a newborn has treatment at 10 minutes of age and multiple daily visits until strain-free, we might think we are done. Experience tells us that infant will still need check up visits. For some unknown reason, the newborn may not release all of its strain in the first few days of life. Latent strain may not appear until weeks or months later when the condition kicks up again. This BBS/CFT/IDM model is totally based on always listening and allowing the newborn’s body to heal in its own space and TIME. The infant is always in control. It reminds us again that we do not fix, manipulate, adjust, heal, or cure anyone of anything. We just facilitate the healing.

About the Gillespie Approach

Dr. Barry Gillespie discovered the Craniosacral Fascial System, which consists of a slight motion of the brain and spinal cord pumping cerebrospinal fluid into the fascial web that connects every structural cell of the body. When physical and/or emotional traumas adversely tighten this freely moving system, tremendous pressure can be exerted on associated nerves, muscles, organs, blood vessels, lymph vessels and bones. Profound effects on body function may result as a major cause of the conditions listed above. Read more.
